I agree with envrmnt on this. I would probably suggest in sticking to the same font but make it more complex, such as instead of using a symbol, maybe do a logo or a word, you would also need to do something with the font to make it more appealing, do some effects on it, such as break ups, overlapping, etc. ---  DigitalFlow Webmaster |

It looks nice "aesthetically", but really you've put no consideration into small details that make a great typography piece, such as kerning, tracking, and leading. Sorry if I have come off a little harsh, but what I've said are the things that you have to consider if you wish to go further in typography. ---
